Help Human Rights Screened Foundation by Donating bookmarks (used/handmade) for 180 Females incarcerated in for self defence GBVF Crime
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
This Women’s Month, help us bring hope and healing to GBV survivors incarcerated for self-defence. We’re hosting roundtable discussions in 6 female prisons across the Western Cape — and we need your help! The used or handmade inspirational bookmarks will accompany the books and journals we’ll be gifting to women . A simple bookmark with an uplifting quote, scripture, or hand-drawn design can serve as a small but powerful daily reminder of hope, strength, and self-worth. These personal touches help humanize the reading experience and remind each woman that someone on the outside believes in her journey. Whether store-bought, gently used, or lovingly handmade by a child, student, or volunteer — your bookmark can mark more than just a page. It can mark a turning point.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
